How can therapy help me with my problems? That is a question I am sure a lot of people ask themselves when considering therapy.

Presence is essential. I understand that I cannot change any individual other than myself, but I can act as a vessel or catalyst by truly understanding myself to help another person. My goal is to create an environment where you become the best you as possible by looking into all aspects of your life.
